You have an I4. No such thing as a V4.

a CAI would give you more of course.

Short ram = warm air from engine bay
Cold air = cold air from outside the engine bay = more power

greatlakestib said it... the colder the air you can get to the engine the better dude.... go with an AEM CAI if you are gonna get one... they are very nice.

Redz is halfway correct, we have an I4. There is such thing as a V4, but not in a tiburon. smile.gif You can get an AEM off of e-bay pretty cheap, or you could go with a knock off of an AEM from e-bay for even cheaper.
